Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 100.0% of the total across 87 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. It is spread thinly across 29 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 9.8% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. That places this record below the midpoint for surgery clinicians in NC, where the typical reported total is $1,719.
Across 87 payments — averaging $16.37 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
